Tutorial: Turn ugly sweaters into mittens

Yesterday I taught a class on how to turn old sweaters into fleece-lined mittens. This is an awesome project because it is quick, easy and you can make a pair for $5 or less with a sweater from Goodwill. It’s also a great way to turn a hideous sweater into an adorable pair of mittens.

I’ve already gotten a request for the pattern on my Facebook page, so I’m including the directions here. First you need to find a pattern for a pair of fleece mittens. Then follow the instructions below to adapt the pattern for sweater mittens.
